Thanks for your replies, guys. I guess I'm laboring under the old
assumption that the more the joints in the fly rod, the worse the
action....

Well, the joints MUST be considered the weak points.....whether in strictly
physical terms or by other criteria......else, why not build a 53 piece rod,
eh?

Because nobody would have the time, energy, or even ability to
remember which piece went where? Unless they had an elastic thread
down the center, like tent poles. That'd work. And then if the rod
fell apart midstream, you'd just snap it back into shape. Yeah.
